You've got a good point regarding Photoshop. Gimp exists on Linux, but I find it immensely powerful but hard to wield.

Gaming with the Steam Desk has gotten better for Linux with the introduction of Proton and I imagine this'll only improve.

You can see if your favorite game is supported with Proton here.

Thanks!

Apart from Steam I mostly use consoles for gaming these days so it would only be Photoshop I guess ( I think ms office works on Linux now?). Gimp is cool but it still can't do everything photoshop does and I find the GUI counterintuitive.

The one thing I still do use Linux for is booting with a thumbdrive when a computer running Windows has a meltdown.
